Testimonials

I wish you and Stefan and the rest of the crew every success with VantagePoint. I am, as ever, grateful that you carry my stuff and help to get the word out there via your “Jottings” and hope that as readers read more closely what is actually written, so they will detect a more insightful and more accurate turn of phrase when it comes to local events in “VantagePoint”. There is nothing like being a part of a community, in order to get a better feel on the ground for what really makes people tick…

Just wanted to say thanks so much for the article in your exciting magazine!! It’s gone down a treat and we had people coming to our business incubator session today because of it. We are really chuffed with how it turned out and hopefully lots of people can benefit from it.

I’ve really noticed a difference in the numbers attending our talks so you are obviously reaching the parts other don’t reach!

Many thanks to you and the team for the excellent profile slot of our Society in the March Edition of VantagePoint. We are very grateful for the regular publicity for our monthly lectures which always results in a number of visitors. We are very hopeful that the in depth coverage of what our Society does and what we have to offer will result in a further surge of interest. We much appreciate the opportunity that you have given us. Thank you again and congratulations on the production of Vanta…

Brian Hawtin, Guildford Wey Valley DFAS

Just a quick message to thank you very much for the mention you gave to our Pat’s Cats Summer Fair in the July issue of Vantage Point. We had a very successful event on Saturday and I know from chatting to our visitors that many of them saw the event in the Jottings section of the magazine, so thank you once again.

I have been advertising with Vantage Point for many years and always find the staff very friendly and helpful. They will tweek my artwork for free as many times as I need until I’m happy with the result. I have gained many clients through this advertising platform and even more enquiries. The staff are always approachable and I get replies to my queries and emails almost immediately. If you’re thinking of advertising with VantagePoint – you can’t go far wrong with Marcus and Stefan.
